Abstract
Kenya's new Constitution and
supportive legal framework contain multiple provisions
requiring both national government and counties to make
information publicly available and consult with citizens in
planning and budgeting. Citizen participation affords county
governments an opportunity to empower citizens on their
operations and to deliberate, debate, and influence the
allocation of public resources. This working paper presents
practical approaches for Kenyan counties to implement public
participation in their systems that encourage meaningful
public engagement.
